ggs torb, it was an honor playing vs ya!

G1: win - Had 2 early grabbies; they got in more than enough damage to finish him off vvith the trap even tho vagger was deflagged. He had bit slovv fractal, vvhich helped.
G2: loss - had a pend and nova to start, but he deflagged the pend. I decided to capitalize by playing vagger, but that couldn't save me when fractix came D: In retrospect I should've saved for voodoo, since grabby in my hand plus 2-3 bbs should've been enough. Tho I think I'd need better draws than what I got to win then.
G3: win - Had trap in hand from the start, so it was smooth sailing.
G4: win - Had no voodoo doll to start D: 2 Graboids and gargoyle beat him down steadily, but he got a pretty fast fractix. He was one turn away from winning when by 4/18 chance I topdecked voodoo

ggs wp, Zawadx/team Darkness. BB/GP/Voodoo wasn't on my consistent bag of Darkness tricks
I think I won 3 coin tosses and never had to wait more than 1 turn on an MP/Fractal with an abundance of early quanta, so I can hardly blame RNG. Indeed, this deck was built to withstand Devs, of which there were none to be found!

Game 1 Lost:
Zawadx claimed a bad draw. 0 pillars/pends to start with, but 2 Novas, soon Graboids, Grabow? I smirked slightly as MPs flooded the board and overwhelmed his offense in no time. Suddenly, Voodoo + Basilisk Blood + Gravity Pull

Spoiler for screenshot:

Game 2 Won:
I figured my best chance would be to try to outrush him, and maybe hope he wastes his Darkness quanta on something else leaving nothing for Doll. I Deflagrated his lone Pendulum asap. He managed to annoy a bit with Vampire Dagger (leaving no quanta for a Doll), but without his defense my offense quickly overwhelmed him.

Spoiler for screenshot:

Game 3 Lost:
Just trying to rush again, too many early pends so saved Deflags for Vampire Daggers. My offensive speed was AWESOME, but it only sped up my demise.

Spoiler for screenshot:

Game 4 Lost:
He had the perfect draw for this, just look at that SS, empty hand! Boo.

Spoiler for screenshot:

This was a really straightforward deck so I'm happy I got to win 1, only other option was Zawadx faildrawing on his combo, he did need it pretty early after all!

Great deck team darkness. Tho bad strategy releasing this on R1. Now people are triggered and more cautious against you.

Good job darkness.Love this kind of deck (reminds me of it's a trap,a personal favourite)

As hain said though,might had been better for it stayed hidden for a bit.

But then they'll play worse vs the other bows expecting a trap

On the contrary. The mind games have begun ever since Darkness snatched up 1st place last war. This is just added torture. x)

Or perhaps just decorate the decks with a few general purpose cards. Such as time using RTs which are good against graboids AND voodoos. Or we might use PU which is the same. Or gravity might use GP to counter your GP on vodoo and switch it on a shrieker. who knows ?

[iancudorinmarian]

Not much of a trap after G1

[Aves]

That's what yall think now...

Nice job Zawa! Thanks to both of you for subbing the match.
